I wish Hallmark would have a better balance between promoting and featuring new shows and dial back having yet another 1701 TOS or TAS era model.
Given that Data’s connection to Spot was a significant plot/character point in Picard season three, I can get behind this one.
The Bagey one is however the only truly fresh collector’s item that profiles a currently running show.
However, they completely lost the window with our kids to get them interested in collecting. They would have loved a Discovery or more positive Lower Decks ornament a couple of years back. There was nothing.
Now, they’ve moved on to other fandoms that actually had stuff to collect. They each still have their favourite Eaglemoss Voyager and 1701-D ship models prominently on display in their rooms, but other franchises have crowded out interest in Star Trek.
As I have mentioned previously, Jon Van Citters and the CBS side really need to take a lesson from colleagues in the Paramount Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles team who have moved TMMT from niche collectibles back to main stream tie-ins that are worth 10 times the value of their new movie.
